Reports on four broad categories of employment: engineering; sciences, math and other technical; business; and other nontechnical. Only increases over 1974 by type of employer were in state and local governments and in non-profit and educational institutions (excluding teaching). (GS)

Analyzes job situations for chemical professionals on the basis of the survey findings obtained by the Chemical and Engineering News and the College Placement Council. Indicates a slight recovery in employment in 1973. (CC)

This report presents information describing labor market conditions for scientists and engineers, focusing only on those scientists and engineers who hold scientific or engineering (S/E) jobs. The scope of this report consists of an analysis of trends in the seventies, an attempt to identify in a qualitative way some of the factors that underlie…

This data brief focuses on statistics related to employment of scientists and engineers in 1995. The data is presented in four charts that provide information on: (1) the number of employed scientists and engineers by broad occupation and broad field of highest degree in 1995; (2) percentage distribution of employed scientists and engineers by…

Describes a publication designed to serve as a statistical base from which various groups can develop policy recommendations on chemical manpower. This new series will be the first official effort by the society to compile, correlate, and present all data relevant to the economic status of chemists. (Author/GS)

This article reviews the status of employment, market conditions and the education pipeline for women, racial minorities and Hispanics in science and engineering in the United States. Employment growth, women's representation in careers, intended undergraduate major, selected characteristics, and SAT score comparisons are graphically displayed.…

This 1980 profile provides an overview of employment stability and change among a small random sample of U.S. and Canadian members of The American Institute of Physics (AIP) member societies: The American Physical Society; Optical Society of America; Acoustical Society of America; The Society of Rheology; American Association of Physics Teachers;…

Presented are employment projections in science and engineering. A shortfall is predicted unless more women and minorities can be attracted to science. Projections are based on a number of demographic and educational statistics. (CW)

Statistics are presented regarding the employment situation for engineers during the school year ending in 1975. The overall findings reflect the state of the national economy with a depressed job market. The major changes in this year's placement status of engineering and technology graduates at all degree levels were a large reduction in the…

This publication provides data on scientific and engineering (S/E) personnel employed in private industry, which employs about 75 percent of the total work force and over 60 percent of the work force of scientists and engineers. Information on the supply, training, employment, and other personal and professional characteristics of S/E personnel is…

The Scientists and Engineers Statistical Data System (SESTAT) is a comprehensive and integrated system of information about scientists and engineers in the United States. It comprises data collected through three national sample surveys supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF): The National Survey of College Graduates, the National…

Discusses recruiting and placement statistics for engineering program graduates for the 1998-1999 academic year. (WRM)

Data presented in this report are derived from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) 1981 Survey of Scientific and Engineering Personnel Employed at Universities and Colleges. Highlights of the survey indicate that: 1) science and engineering (S/E) employment in the higher education sector increased 3-percent between January 1980 and January…

Studies of past, present and projected supplies of scientists and engineers and their utilization in science and engineering are reviewed in this report. It is the intent of the study to explain the differences of opinion about the future supply and utilization of scientists and engineers and also to provide an assessment. Contents discuss: (1)…

Engineers and technologists are generally thought to be critical to various aspects of our society, including national security, economic competitiveness, and the general welfare. This report asks questions and provides some answers about how employment of engineers in defense industries and laboratories affects employment in civilian industries…
